What did your MINI get ?

Just wanted to know what your MINI received for Christmas or the Holidays.

I got some die cast models and some JCW stuff.

Over the four day weekend the MINI got the boot. She's now sold.

I would like to thank ECS for the excellent service and quick shipping of MINI parts.

I thought about breaking out the pressure washer to get the dirt off and decided it would just get filthy in about five minutes so not even a bath for the Moocher.

Splurged on the Mini Click and Drive phone holder. Never found a phone mount that I liked. Unit was expensive but I like it so it was worth it.

The passenger door pull / grab handle on my 2002 MCS is pretty scratched up from people's rings, so these covers were a nice remedy ...



Sometime down the line I can use these to make a pattern to have some made that match the upholstery.

I meant match the Panther Black vinyl on the door armrest.

These covers are Black Black and have a carbon fiber look. Even so they don't look out of place.

My brother-in-law has a 2005 Cool Blue Convertible with Dark Blue upholstery and Denim Blue. My sister has made patterns from the covers I got and she will make some Denim Blue ones for his MINI.

yep the panther black. Thats what i meant.

The Convertibles had that dark blue interior, you would never notice until you sat in one. Post up the blue one when made, would like to see that interior. Does it have the blue leather seats with orange stitch ?

The Dark Blue Upholstery in the car is option T6DC ...



It's a very dark blue ... I don't recall any colored stitching though.
